I think a lot of you have forgotten. . .

So everyone wipe those smiles off your faces and go back to whining and moaning about THIRTY-ONE YEARS.

I know you were being sarcastic and kidding, but this also gave some a chance to crawl back into their caves of gloom and doom.  After such a nice win, a chance to avoid being happy and throw themselves on the rocks of despair.  Like sands in the hour glass, so are the days of our lives.  The young and the restless. Remaining in their endless soap opera, even after such a nice win and being in First Place in the AFC North at 5-2. 

The good thing is you were kidding.  I'm very excited and pumped up over the best win since the 2015 season.  Enjoying such a great win.  I do admit I have an eye out for next week.  The Jets are hurting and The Bengals should beat them easily, except it is in The Meadowlands.  At New York or New Jersey.  The old problem of teams being flat after a big win.  5-2 is nice, but getting to 6-2 would be even better.  

But for now I will enjoy one of the nest wins in Bengals History, for after 5 years of having a lousy team, we have a pretty good team again. It's been a long 5 year wait from 2015 to 2021 for THE FANS.   Hopefully next week our Bengals take care of business and make it 6-2 on the season. 

GO BENGALS



PS : I notice your Charles Bukowski quote. The things of his I would like to quote would get me barred forever. His short stories of drinking, gambling, sex ,going broke, taking lousy jobs and more drinking are rough and he curses like a sailor. Some of his stuff is very funny. Some of his stuff is very great short stories. Yes some of his best lines are so rough, I could never post them on here. When his books have titles such as, " Tales Of Ordinary Madness ", and story titles such as ' No Horse BLANK Horse Advise ', and BLANK is a deleted word...His are not the stories for The Woke Generation. One of his great lines is about how he had ignored the aches and pains of his drinking, until now in the hospital his aches and pains refused to be ignored. Besides a lot of curse words, there is some very good writing in some of his works, although some critics disagree. Some to me are very funny as Lenny Bruce or George Carlin. His funniest stuff too rough to be quoted. His books are not easy to find, but some book stores still dare to carry him. So I considered following your Bukowski quote with one that I would like, but it would have too many curse words. So I will just stick with my GO BENGALS ending.
